Journey Man
Synopsis
Mohamed Ali is a young African refugee who arrives as a stowaway in a rundown Welsh town.
It's Christmas. He is starving, lost. Finally he seeks shelter in a pub.
He is thrown out by the landlord but unexpectedly touches the heart of Connie, the landlord's wife.
Our short film is an unusual and heartwarming fairytale that reaches beyond its topical subject matter. Whilst entirely fictional, the story is inspired by the real story of a recent asylum seeker to Britain.
